HygieneTipOfTheWeek:Condoms&somemorecondoms

Happy October, everyone, October is a time for new beginnings, Breast cancer and Blindness Awareness Month, oh, and the month where we at Can We Talk? Share some information on Hygiene and STIs. This Month series is called FYI: STIs and More.

1. Do not reuse condoms OR share a used condom this includes Washing and reusing - you risk spreading infections and pregnancy. It's best to use a new, unused, undamaged condom.

2. Remember to check the expiration date-Why? Because condoms lose, flexibility and strength and are more likely to break, spermicides lose their potency and depending on where you store said condom (check for physical damages too)..... it's better to be safe.

Do Not: Flush Condom down the toilet(will clog), throw outside (bio hazard), or bury it into the ground (does not decompose)

Lesson 3: Practice safe sex; always wear a condom

Whether you're penetrating or orally having sex, a condom is a must. It prevents unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases. Whether you're in the mood to use a condom or not, it's best to use condoms for protection. If you're allergic to latex, the FC2 is an option, there are also non-latex and non-lubricant condoms available.

Thank you for this! Sex education is so important and many times schools don't teach it properly, and kids don't feel comfortable asking questions especially females who tend to be more subject to judgement and labels if they show interest in sex
